- Run in 3 weeks
- Boardroom-ready output
AI is moving faster than most commercial operating models.
Pilots are everywhere. Impact on the P&L is not. The leaders pulling ahead are the ones who treat AI as a redesign of how revenue gets made, not a tool buy. This diagnostic gives your leadership team a shared scorecard to decide where to invest first.
Sales, marketing and ops finally argue from the same picture.
Five maturity levels per capability, scored per segment.
Bottlenecks are visible. Investment cases write themselves.
Three building blocks. One AI-first commercial engine.
Every AI-first commercial organisation we’ve seen rests on the same three pieces. Most companies are missing at least one.
A live knowledge graph fed by meetings, CRM, content and signals. The shared memory your sellers, marketers and AI all draw from.
Plain-text, versioned descriptions of how revenue is made. Machine and human readable. Portable across Salesforce, Microsoft, or any composable stack.
Humans and AI working as one team. Feedback from the field updates the brain, the brain sharpens the backbone, the backbone guides the next action.
We put the structures in place, one step at a time.
Not a strategy deck. Not a year-long transformation. Working structures, embedded in your commercial team, that compound from week one.
- Meeting transcripts from client calls systematically flow into the knowledge graph, with daily and weekly insight sweeps.
- 1:1 sales coaching transcripts capture sentiment in the sales floor and how managers actually coach.
- AI copilots for meeting prep, follow-ups and customer insights, embedded where sellers already work.
- First version of the commercial backbone written, reviewed and versioned with your leadership team.
